tendinopathy problem

[alex souza]

Hi guys, I was diagnosed with tendinopathy , which is tendon pain and inflammation of the tendons on the hand palm , the doctor said I have no choice but rest to recover ( about 6 weeks) which is an eternity for me, do you think wearing lifting gloves can allow me to continue lifting? or I definitively have to stop?

Lifting gloves wont do shit. Why not do some rehab. Google what you can do but I'm thinking massage and stretching.

you will live man. you can still workout other parts of the body without needing your hand. focus on your lower body

Just listen to the doctor. Focus on your diet in the meantime and train your legs. Don't forget about your lower half!

Tendonitis is a disease of inflammation. Try supplementing with fish oil and krill oil.

Fish oil - 6g/day
Krill oil - 2g/day

Both of those are very strong natural anti-inflammatories that will also help lubricate the area.

The fish oil you can pick up for cheap at costco. I get my krill oil from the board sponsor n2bm.com
